Ohio’s Livestock Exhibition Rules, Livestock Show Reform Act, and state Livestock Exhibition Program are nationally and internationally recognized for being some of the best in the country and the world. Ohio and all its livestock producers and exhibitors help to keep Ohio as a top state for exhibition regulations and superior quality exhibition livestock.
In this newsletter, we aim to provide key topics and discussions on the most important and current topics related to livestock exhibition rules. It is important that all sponsors, exhibitors, producers, and veterinarians understand these new rules and be familiar with the changes and expectations. Failure to read and understand these rules, or ignoring the requirements, may have a negative impact on an exhibitor and their family. The goal is to provide information in various formats so that everyone can exhibit and enjoy the rewards of their hard work while following the law.
The 2024 fair season was another great year, and we know that 2025 will be even better. Thanks for your support!
